Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa An engaging film about terribly repulsive characters. In a word, as Scandinavian as films get. Aug 14, 2020 Full Review Joseph Walsh CineVue Petersén has surpassed himself by striking a fine balance with these morally ambivalent characters, aided by the cinematography of Måns Månsson, whose work is truly remarkable. Rated: 5/5 Aug 24, 2018 Full Review Glenn Dunks Trespass [A] mercifully brief excursion into the (low) lives of the Swedish Hamptons set. Sep 8, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A look at the Swedish underworld is what Alex Petersen has to offer in his first feature film. We are before some interesting character studies in a very dark tale. In some moments we can really feel the strength and potentiality of this story. In others, we are convinced that it could have been better explored. Deliberately or not, everything on this movie was unemotional, which makes the viewer to keep some distance from what's happening. However, the boldness showed in direction has sharpened my curiosity about Peterson's future works. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Great photography and intense acting by Brost in the so far undiscovered landscape of Båstad and its unique creme de la creme. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
